AVAILABILITY OF STUDIES
Unless otherwise indicated, the studies listed in this guide are unclassified. Their release to nonofficial and to non- U.S. agencies and individuals, however, is controlled. Agencies and nationals of foreign countries desiring access to the collection should apply for per mission through normal liaison chan nels.
Ninety percent of the studies listed exist only as typed manuscripts. Where multiple copies of studies have been made, either through printing or other wise, this fact is noted in the individual catalog entries. Copies of such studies usually can be obtained on loan by official U. S. agencies. Where only single file copies exist, these must usually be researched in the repository itself.
All reproduced studies may be ob tained on loan for varying periods. They are also available for limited issue on a while-they-last basis from the reproducing agency. Such studies were given an automatic distribution upon publication, and copies may be found in libraries of major installations and service schools. Studies printed as Department of the Army Pamphlets may be obtained from AG publication depots.
A complete collection of these studies is maintained at the Office of the Chief of Military History, Washington 25, D C, and a nearly complete collection at the Historical Division. USAREUR, APO 164, U. S. Army (Karlsruhe, Ger many). Other large collections are located in the following places: The Army Library, The Pentagon, Washing ton 25, D. C; National War College
Library, Ft. Leslie J. McNair, Washing ton 25, D. C.; Armed Forces Staff Col lege Library, Fortress Monroe, Va.; Army War College Library, Carlisle Barracks, Pa.; and Command and Gen eral Staff College Library, Fort Leaven- worth, Kansas.

PREFACE
This catalog and index is a guide to the manu scripts produced under the Foreign MilitaryStudies Program of the Historical Division, United States Army, Europe, and of predecessor commands since 1945. Most of these manuscripts were pre pared by former high-ranking officers of the German Armed Forces, writing under the spon sorship of their former adversaries. The program therefore represents an unusual degree of col laboration between officers of nations recently at war.
The Foreign Military Studies Program actually began shortly after V-E Day, when Allied inter- "ogators first questioned certain prominent German prisoners of war. Results were so en- cooraging that the program was expanded; writ ten questions replaced oral interrogation, and later certain highly-placed German officers were asked to prepare a series of monographs.
Originally the mission of the program was only to obtain information on enemy operations in the European Theater for use in the preparation of an official history of the U. S. Army in World War II. 'n 1946 the program was broadened to include the Mediterranean and Russian war theaters. Be- Qinning in 1947 emphasis was placed on the pre paration of operational studies for use by U. S. Army planning and training agencies and service schools. The result has been the collection of a 'arge amount of useful information about the German Armed Forces, prepared by German military experts. While the primary aim of the Program has remained unchanged, many of the more recent studies have analyzed the German e*perience with a view toward deriving useful 'essons.
The authors were usually key participants in the events which they described and were able to Su Pply information not otherwise available. In ^any cases they have supplemented or refreshed their memories by consulting with their military associates. It must be remembered, however, that the contributors are professional military leaders,
not historians or writers. While for the most part they have tried to be thorough and objective, they view events primarily in terms of their own ex perience.
'n the initial phases of the program all of the contributors were prisoners of war or internees,- participation, however, was always voluntary. While participants were reimbursed for their work, they have been motivated mainly by professional interest and by the desire to promote western solidarity and mutual defense.
In 1948, after most of the contributors had re turned to civilian life, the administrative structure and tempo of the program was changed. Con tributors now prepare studies in their own homes under the supervision of a small control group, composed of selected high-ranking German officers.
Many of the early manuscripts were inadequat ely translated and were assigned inappropriate titles. Some of these manuscripts have been reissued in revised versions but in most cases the original titles have been retained to facilitate identification.
During the early years of the program, con tributors had to rely largely on their memories, since the basic documents had been destroyed or were otherwise unavailable to them. Within the past few months basic documents have been in creasingly provided to contributors, who now place more emphasis on careful documentation. Current studies are now checked against known sources and in some cases are considerably re vised in the English version. Although individual studies will continue fo vary in quality, the col lection as a whole constitutes a noteworthy con tribution to the history of World War II.
As the number of manuscripts increased, it became essential to index the collection in order to make its contents more readily available. This project was begun in September 1951 by General der Artiilerie Friedrich von Boetticher, German
military attache to the United States from 1933 to 1941. Initially the index was planned to include only those manuscripts which had been trans lated and were considered to contain useful mili tary lessons. This phase of the project was virtually completed by spring 1952, when General von Boet- ticher was compelled for personal reasons to give up the work. At that time it was decided to index and evaluate all of the manuscripts in the collec tion, regardless of their nature.Thistaskwas under taken by General der Artillerie Anton Freiherr von Bechtolsheim, who completed the indexing and evaluated each study with regard to its historical, operational, and technical interest.
The present guide contains a catalog of manu scripts and three indexes by topic, by military unit, and by author. Most entries in the catalog include a short statement describing the contents and usefulness of the study.
Certain translation difficulties are reflected in this guide. German military terms do not always have exact American equivalents and cannot be
expressed briefly in precise military language. Un translated terms appearing in this guide are ex plained in the Glossary, page 252. This difficult) in arriving at standardized and generally accept' ed translation's of German military terms has beer1 a persistent problem in preparing the manuscripts; the researcher may even feel the need for an expansion and revision of U. S. military termin ology.
Studies now in preparation and those projected will also be indexed and catalogued. Errata and addenda sheets will be issued from time to time, but a complete revision of the catalog does not seen practicable in the near future. A limited number of copies of this guide are available W official agencies, particularly to those whicl1 possess a substantial number of the studies.

CHAPTER 1
ETHINT-SERIES MANUSCRIPTS
ETHINT is a contraction of "European Theater Historical Interrogations." These manuscripts re cord the first American historical interviews with German officers, including some of very high ran k, in the immediate postwar period. A few of these officers have made more complete and
accurate reports at a later date. Most of the inter rogations were conducted at Bad Mondorf, Luxem burg in the summer and autumn of 1945.
The ETHINT series is available in English type script; none have been printed. (Available only at the Office of the Chief of Military History.)

CHAPTER 2A-SERIES MANUSCRIPTS
When the first complete inventory of studies made in mid-1946, alt translated manuscripts
n hand were designated the A-series. Numbers were assigned in inverse order, from A-1000 to A-855, and the series was then closed. All authors m this series were in prisoner of war status. During the summer of 1945 procedure followed a tech nique originating with intelligence agencies: each manuscript consisted of a transcribed oral inter view which was afterward submitted to the person
interviewed for checking and signature. This pro cedure was soon discarded in favor of written ans wers to written questionnaires. While some of the questionnaires are missing, the writer's statements are nevertheless clear. A very few studies, dated 1947, are revisions of earlier manuscripts. In some cases the date of writing is unknown.
AM A-series manuscripts are available at OCMH, Washington 25, D. C. and Historical Division, USAREUR.

CHAPTER 3
B-SER1ES MANUSCRIPTS
When a systematic listing of studies was begun in mid-1946, manuscripts on hand but still un translated were listed in the B-series. Manuscripts continued to be added until July 1948. The bulk of these studies are narrative histories of units on the Western Front, division to army group level. However, this series is the longest and most varied in subject matter and quality. Many of the
studies are available in English only as draft translations. In some cases dates of writing are unknown and have been omitted without corr ment.
Unless otherwise noted, a!i B-Series manuscripts are available in English and German at botl1-" OCMH, Washington 25, D. C, and Historic^ Division, USAREUR.

CHAPTER 7T-SERIES MANUSCRIPTS
This series was begun at Neustadt in July 1947 last numbers were assigned in 1951, although
of the projects were either completed or cancelled by early 1949. Each topic was to be Seated in broad terms by a committee of officers, one of whom was to act as topic leader. The topic leader was to supervise and edit the work of his colleagues.
Since mis program required considerable Organization and cooperation and since many of
contributors were being released from prisoner war status or transferred from Neustadt to other
camps, few studies were completed as originally intended. Many individual contributions were for warded directly to the HistoricaJ Division and pro cessed separately. Many manuscripts intended originally as T-series studies eveVituaily became part of the B-, C-, D-, or P-series. Consequently there are gaps in the numbering and many of the manuscripts have not been translated.
Apart from MS # T-9, which is still in prepara tion by the author, all work on this series has been suspended.

CHAPTER 8AIR FORCE STUDIES
(AF-Series)
These studies are being written, by special ar- rangement, for the U.S. Air Force. The project was begun iate in 1952, and as of summer 1954 work is under way on thirty-nine monographs. The studies have been assigned numbers in the Air Force Historical Monograph series; for ready identifi cation in this volume the prefix "AF-" has been added to each number. Each study will be a com pilation of the work of a committee of former Luft- ^affe officers. However, only topic leaders (com mittee chairmen) are being listed for this series, a nd in several cases it is stil! undecided which
contributor will consent to be topic leader — a position that requires a great deal of time. Many experienced officers are now active in German industry and can spare time to write short support ing studies only. Their names will appear in the studies to which they contribute but are not listed below.
Draft versions of the manuscripts listed here will only be made available through the Air Force Project Liaison Officer attached to the Historical Division, USAREUR.
